watch the GameSpot preview analysis of project Morpheus GDC demos here...
Now the thing to really notice, see how they describe themselves in the first person while talking about the games, and how even the most simple gameplay mechanics like loading a gun has a conlkeyeky different feel. Great video.

Unfortunately what they are talking about are tech demos. The same stuff could have been done without the headset with a Wii remote or the Move, also the Kinect. Unfortunately for the most part none of that has been done. The Kinect had great potential, but very little of it actually came to fruition. Till it actually does, I'm most certainly holding back any excitement. I know it seems like I'm hating, but I'm just being very skeptical because we have all been burned with all this before. Actually, we are burned almost every time we see a new trailer for a game that is going to be released. They all end up falling quite short of what they portray. I fear this will be the same.

You know there are full games with VR support added into the experience? War Thunder for instance feels like a completely different game in VR. I nearly didn't recognise it when I played it normally on the PS4 vs the Oculus version I played. The simple act of turning your head to locate the aircraft shooting at you completely changed my immersion and experience of the game.
This isn't just a gimmicky tech for video games. This is a whole new medium for art and entertainment in which video games play a part. We're eventually going to get movies (both real footage and graphical) designed for VR, virtual skype meetings, educational experiences etc.
